Britain's royal family released the first official photos of Prince George on Sunday. The photos are a little different because a royal photographer didn't take them. The photos came from the private family album of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge (William and Kate). George's grandfather Michael Middleton took the photos. One photo shows one-month-old George with his happy parents. They are all standing under a tree. Another snap includes the family dog. Portraits of royal babies have always been taken in royal palaces by professional photographers. The photographer makes a special studio and background. Prince George's photos break this tradition.
Prince George is third in line to the British throne. This means he will be king after his grandfather (Prince Charles) and his father die. Prince William said he is enjoying every minute of being a father, but is looking forward to when his son sleeps all night. He even joked that he wanted to go back to work so he could get some sleep. William told reporters he is a hands-on father. He changed George's very first nappy (diaper) but said his wife did most of the work in the middle of the night. William said his son reminded him of himself when he was a baby. He said of his son: "He wriggles around quite a lot, and he doesn't want to go to sleep that much, which is a little bit of a problem."
